A fluorescent material includes a silica matrix, and a fluorescent dye compound covalently bonded to the silica matrix. The fluorescent dye compound may have first and second absorption wavelengths and an emission wavelength. A method for producing a photoswitchable fluorescent material includes combining silane monomers and fluorescent silane dyes, and initiating a polymerization reaction between the silane monomers and the photoswitchable fluorescent silane dyes, thereby creating photoswitchable fluorescent dye compounds covalently bonded to a silica matrix. The authenticity of a product may be verified according to a method in which a fluorescent material is present in or on a product, and the material is tested for fluorescence at first and second absorption wavelengths, the presence of structural characteristics, or both. The fluorescent material may exhibit on/off functionality through the use of the fluorescent material at different absorption wavelengths. |
